No matter where you're coming from, flying can be an enjoyable experience if you're well organised. We've put together a list of top travel tips that will get your Kuala Perlis holiday started on the right note.What to pack in your hand luggage:
- First things first, pack your passport, travel documents, cash and vital medications. Next, you'll want some entertainment to help pass the time. A juicy book and a phone crammed with your favourite shows are some fantastic options. If you plan to take a short snooze, a neck pillow and some earplugs will also come in handy. Finally, make room for a toothbrush and some facial wipes to ensure you touchdown looking fresh and raring to go.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- While the list of prohibited items differs between air carriers, the general rule of thumb is nothing sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes things like screwdrivers, drills, aerosol cans and flares. Sports equipment like baseball bats, and objects that could harm other people, such as pepper spray and guns, aren't allowed in the cabin either.
What to wear on a flight:
- Comfort really should be your number one priority when picking what to wear during your flight. Consider your footwear choice with care too, as swollen feet and ankles are a common occurrence. Flat, slightly roomy shoes are always a sensible way to go.
- The serious condition by the name of DVT (deep vein thrombosis) is a potential risk on long-haul flights. It's the result of blood clotting due to poor circulation and inactivity. Doing regular foot and leg exercises while seated is a great way to prevent this occurring. Wearing a pair of compression socks or tights also helps reduce the risk.
